Speculation doing the rounds is that the talks between Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka and Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi have collapsed? It seems neither of them wants to surrender their ambition of becoming president and that is the sticking point. Their handlers say they are now finding difficult to proceed with the negotiations as each of the two men are adamant that its the presidency or no deal.

The construction of a dam in Eastern province whose tender was awarded three years ago has stalled allegedly after a fall out between the contractor and some people in the parastatal who are demanding a kickback. The project has been faced with problems from the very start when the original design had to be re-done as it was done poorly. Now a vehicle assigned to the project—a brand new Land Cruiser, has mysteriously disappeared and the delay has attracted the eagle eyes of the anti-corruption commission!

The logic of grounding trafficking in the city just so President Kibaki and his entourage can get from point a to point b was reduced to a simple mathematical equation by a university lecturer who was caught up in the humoungous traffic jam on Ngong road yesterday.“What kind of an economist should we consider him when he has grounded over 1000 vehicles for about 20 minutes? If every car wasted 3litres of fuel and each of the 1000 (even though not each vehicle had one person) they each lost about Sh200 worth man hours which translates to at least Sh60 million which went down the drain. He is building the economy with the right hand and destroying it with the left. Thats a zero-sum game!”

Last weekend's disastrous football final which left K'Ogalo players and fans weeping is now being blamed on the lunch they had at a city restaurant. The players are blaming the food they at during lunch for their failure to beat the Tusker boys who lifted the cup. What some wags are telling us is that the lunch was so sumptuous that some of the players may have eaten too much and were 'still overloaded' by the time they got into the pitch!
